B.G 15.03 and 04
न रूपमस्येह तथोपलभ्यते नान्तो न चादिर्न च सम्प्रतिष्ठा। अश्वत्थमेनं सुविरूढमूलं असङ्गशस्रेण द्रुडेन छित्त्वा ॥३॥
The form of this tree cannot be perceived here, neither its end nor its beginning, nor the way it is established. One must cut down this well-rooted banyan tree with the strong weapon of detachment.
ततः परं तत् परिमार्गितव्यं यस्मिन् गता न निवर्तन्ति भूयः। तमेव चाद्यं पुरुषं प्रपद्ये यतः प्रवृत्तिः प्रसृता पुराणी ॥४॥
Then, one should seek that ultimate goal, reaching which, one does not return again by calling - "I surrender to that primeval person from whom the ancient creation has emanated".
Gīta Tātparya 15.03 and 04
Testimonial is provided elaborating on the Peepul tree analogy, emphasizing - "By knowledge alone, one should discern and seek Lord Viṣṇu. Surrender to him, the original source, as this world is a manifestation of his divine part."
"जगद्वृक्षोयमश्वत्थो ह्यश्वत् चञ्चलात्मकः। अव्ययोऽयं प्रवाहेण स्वसक्तिज्ञानहेतिना॥
"The world is like the Peepul tree, changing and fickle by nature. It is eternal, driven by the flow of its own power and knowledge.
विष्णोः सम्यक् पृथक् द्रुष्टिनामच्छेदनभाक् सदा। अव्यक्तादिसमस्तं तु नेति नेत्यादि वाक्यतः॥
Lord Vishnu, the eternal destroyer of all views, is properly and distinctly understood through the statement 'not this, not this', beginning from the unmanifest.
बोधेनैव पृथग् विष्णोः कृत्वा मृग्यः स केशवः। तमेवाद्यं प्रपद्येत यदंशाभासको ह्ययम्॥
By knowledge alone, one should discern and seek Lord Keśava, who is none other than Lord Viṣṇu. Surrender to him, the original source, as this world is a manifestation of his divine part.
जीवराशिः समस्तोऽपि ब्रह्मरुद्रेन्द्रपूर्वकः॥"
Indeed, the entire collection of living beings is headed by Brahma, Rudra, and Indra."
